| An alternate solution |

PCV was the first step in the emissions standards imposed by the government back in the 60's is my understanding. For years cars had a draft or vent tube and functioned quite well until the car wore out the rings or valve guides and then your engine would puff blue smoke from this tube or spew small amounts of oil from it depending on how wornout the components were.
My point? The plate on the back of that intake had nothing but a crooked vent on the Cobras'
and is sold by Tony Branda. It works pretty good.
I to have the snake valve covers that I had a PCV hooked to and no matter what I did it still took healthy drinks of oil from it. My solution was simple. I did away with the PCV system and put a breather cap on the passenger side valve cover along with leaving the stock cap with hose to the breather on the drivers' side.
I have suffered no ill effects from this and I do not have those fumes from the crank in my cumbustion chamber affecting its performance. It works for me.
PS. Here is a shot of the reason I am broke, I mean my car. ;-)
